We had actual hockey news last week as the Calgary Flames landed a pair of coveted college free agents. Connor Mackey and Colton Poolman are the two newest Flames. Since Brad Treliving has been Flames general manager, though, the Flames haven’t had amazing results with college signings.
Kenney Morrison
The Flames signed Morrison after his junior year with Western Michigan University. The fit was pretty obvious: he was a right shot defender coming off three seasons in the NCAA, and surely he would be able to work his way up a farm system utterly lacking in right shots (aside from Rasmus Andersson).
